I have seen a lot of recent posts about lowering our cars but I want to do the opposite. I have a 2018 991.2 GTS with SPASM option and my car is slightly too low. I get some scraping going in and out of my driveway at an angle. I am looking for some options to raise my car .5" to maybe an 1". What would people recommend? I also have the DSC module which works great for improving the ride.

I've read through all the posts about lower our cars and see the options that people have used for lowering like lower springs, H&R or KW HAS kits, coilovers, etc. I am thinking that some of these options could also work to raise my car as well. I have considered the techart lift kit but the cost is just about through the roof now at about $10K including install. FAL seems like a bargain now but I missed the boat on that option. I was also wondering if the PASM springs would work. The part numbers between the SPASM and PASM shocks are different but I was not sure if there is a reason that the springs are not interchangeable.

Looking at all the previous suspension posts, I know a lot of you have experience with suspension mods so please give me some ideas. Also my driveway is not long enough to change the angle.

KW HLS. Not cheap.

Could try bigger diameter tires.

255/40/20 and 345/30/20 tires would fit on your GTS rims and would raise the car 0.5 to 0.6 inches.

The PASM springs will raise your car about 10mm, they are about $250 ea from Gaudin Porsche. The part numbers that are different for PASM and SPASM are the springs,dampers/shocks, lower perches/spring disc, and the bumpers. I went the lowering route and E-motion in Newport Beach said there was some factory adjustment on the upper plates - he was able to lower the car 5/8" in the front and 7/8" in the back, more than the 10mm. Maybe you can raise the car a little more than 10mm with the PASM springs.
We only changed out the springs, but it ends up the rear lower perches are required to go lower.
